If its the first weekend I'll be pushing it, hoping to make it for sure, but its looking like we'll only be arriving back in the country on the 3rd or 4th which is the Wednesday or Thursday, so once the insurance and all that is sorted out by then, (fingers crossed!), should still be up for it.

If ye are interested in an overnight meet, stick an o in after your name, not getting much of a feed back on what ye want to do , So what i was thinking was meet up in carlow on the sat morning for a tea before head off for abit of a drive could stop for photo's head to newross and onto waterford for an overnight stay next morning or even that day could head out to tramore for more photo waterford is about an hour from carlow town , Please add any idea's ye have Colm any input any more people got a great turn out last year

[Dragonheart]

I'm easy with what to do, just want to drive my car at this stage! Nice road trip will do the job fine, with a few scenic stop offs, and a bite to eat and few pints after. Perfect.
Just realized I have to get a bloody letter from the guards too to say I wasn't in the country so I don't get taxed for the last 8 months so still hoping to get all that sorted before I can take that provisional off my name!
